Book excerpt: "A bright book and a brilliant book." - Robert Macfarlane. Peter MacAulay sits down to write his will. The process sets in motion a compulsive series of reflections: a history of his own lifetime and a subjective account of how key events in the post-war world filter through to his home, Stornoway. He reveals his passions for history, engines and fish, and witnesses changing times - and things that don’t change - in the Hebrides. The novel is driven by its idiosyncratic narrator, but with counterpoints from people he engages with - his father, mother, wife, daughter, friends. It’s all about stories, a litany of small histories witnessed during one very individual lifetime.

Book excerpt: Winner of the Commonwealth Prize New York Times Book Review—Notable Fiction 2002 Entertainment Weekly—Best Fiction of 2002 Los Angeles Times Book Review—Best of the Best 2002 Washington Post Book World—Raves 2002 Chicago Tribune—Favorite Books of 2002 Christian Science Monitor—Best Books 2002 Publishers Weekly—Best Books of 2002 The Cleveland Plain Dealer—Year’s Best Books Minneapolis Star Tribune—Standout Books of 2002 Once upon a time, when the earth was still young, before the fish in the sea and all the living things on land began to be destroyed, a man named William Buelow Gould was sentenced to life imprisonment at the most feared penal colony in the British Empire, and there ordered to paint a book of fish. He fell in love with the black mistress of the warder and discovered too late that to love is not safe; he attempted to keep a record of the strange reality he saw in prison, only to realize that history is not written by those who are ruled. Acclaimed as a masterpiece around the world, Gould’s Book of Fish is at once a marvelously imagined epic of nineteenth-century Australia and a contemporary fable, a tale of horror, and a celebration of love, all transformed by a convict painter into pictures of fish.

Download or read book The Dying Fish written by Cedric Keith and published by . This book was released on 2016-04-29 with total page 538 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A delighful discovery: highly original, entertaining, and often informative, written by a new talent on the scene. This book is highly recommended." - Joseph L. Bast, President, The Heartland Institute "An inspired look at the world of the native brook trout." - Doug Stange, Editor-in-Chief, In-Fisherman "Cedric Keith's solo adventure over the entire range of the eastern brook trout is both high adventure and a startlingly high-minded quest after ideas." - Dr. Jack Kohl, Pianist and Author, That Iron String The Dying Fish is a story about a long walk in the woods, totaling more than 4,000 miles, in pursuit of native brook trout and a better understanding of their world. But it's also, inescapably, the story of the person who took that walk. Cedric Keith begins this quest in his humble urban home but takes himself to a higher place in The Dying Fish, a work that transitions radically from beginning to end. Lacking the know-it-all quality of too many outdoor texts, you'll learn along with Cedric about modern trail life as he begins finding his way from Georgia back to Pennsylvania and points further north. Learning to hike and live in the wild had to come first, before investigation of the brook trout, and The Dying Fish chronicles that process instead of assuming it. You'll encounter Salvelinus fontinalis on intimate terms, beginning with the vestige persisting south of the Smoky Mountains and ending with the trout of dreams inhabiting the wilds of New England. The reader cannot finish the story without gaining an enhanced perspective on the ecology of the species and the diversity of populations from south to north. You will come to know where the brook trout persist, where they don't and why. As Cedric travels on toward and into the New England mountains, the book also rises to new heights, asking more substantial questions about the environment, our society and us as individuals, in keeping with the story of a lone hiker. If the state of the environment is as we've been led to believe, then why are the brook trout and their wilderness returning with a vengeance?
